15 Female Prospects the UFC Should Sign in 2021

Lupita “Loopy” Godinez (Strawweight)

27 | 5’2” | Aguascalientes, Mexico | 5-0 | 1 Finish | 1 KO/TKO | Combined Opponents’ Record: 14-8 | Best win – Vanessa Demopoulos (5-2)

After posting a 4-4 amateur record, Godinez stepped off the brakes, stomped on the gas, and now has a nice undefeated resume as a professional. It should also be noted that her losses as an amateur came against good fighters, and she also holds a win against recent UFC signee Sam Hughes. In her last amateur MMA fight, Godinez won the Combat Games strawweight championship. It’s obvious to see the progression “Loopy” has had, and it all showed in her last fight when she beat Vanessa Demopoulos for the LFA strawweight title in her LFA debut.

Godinez is solely a striker who really hasn’t used wrestling. She does have it in her back pocket, but she’d rather just catch kicks and dump her foes on their rears. The left hook is money from “Loopy.” Her best weapon. Godinez is someone that’s going to stay in your face throwing her hands, staying active, and throwing to the body perfectly. Godinez is more modeled as a pressure striker who will batter women en-route to a decision.
